Making humans 'see' in slow motion

According to several sources, all organisms process information at different rates - to a fly, the world is in slow motion (relative to humans), for instance, but to a pigeon, the world may move faster.

If the ability to see the world in "slow motion", which is now known to be biologically possible, could be passed to a human, it may have some interesting consequences - boredom, perhaps, unless the person adapts - but also faster responses to stimuli, faster reflexes, and possibly an edge over slower-reacting, non-altered human competitors.

So how do we do it?
What is (if there is) a feasible way to alter a person, either genetically or surgically, to see the world at an altered rate, thus allowing for "slow motion thought" and the resulting enhancements?
